Hello,
I found the site looking for resources about AS. I think I have it and want to make sure my 2.5 year old doesn't develop any symptoms without support available. I always said I am a "social cripple" but it is rather spooky how some of the things I read seem to describe me personally (tho some don't). I figured we [humans] were all wired a little different, each with their own skewed view of the world. I still have a few questions and hope to ask them in a later post - after I finish some other projects.
Thanks,
Kelly S.

hi welcome to th wp.

how i wonder do you plan on making sure your child doesn't develop symptoms?

and what if your child does develop symptoms in spite of your efforts?

Welcome, Darby.

If your son does have AS, there is plenty of support available for children. Unfortunately, there is far less support services for adults with AS.

I hope you enjoy posting here.

Welcome Darby!

I think you'll find that you are in good company. There are a good number of parents here who are on the spectrum and are also parents of children on the spectrum.

Cheers!
Anne
